Heterogeneous Condensation on Nanoparticle

  • Conference paper
Nucleation and Atmospheric Aerosols

Vapor condensation on nanoparticle with radius smaller than the Kelvin radius is considered as fluctuation or as the heterogeneous nucleation. The expression for steady-state heterogeneous nucleation rate is obtained.

Keywords The Kelvin radius, core-shell structure, heterogeneous nucleation rate
